Code challenge help

http://codepen.io/sk1ll3t/pen/Knvqj

and get the following error: Bummer! Header cells must be inside of a table row and have text in them. i've exchanged the <th></th> tag with a thead tag got the same error then replaced it with a p tag and got the same error. Is this a bug because i keep getting the same error?

No it's not a bug. You're not quite there.

You can only use 

<thead>

once. Inside of thead,and inside of your row, you add data to the head using the 

<th>My data</th>

tags. You can use as many as those as you want inside your thead. Than make sure to close the head before opening the table body, which would than use the 

<td>My data</td> tags.

Try that. I just re did the code challenge and passed it as so.
